BaseOutputPath is not respected as per the documentation
See original GitHub issueGoing back to Visual Studio 2008 (and up to the current version) it is documented that BaseOutputPath is a “Common MSBuild Project Property”.
Specifically it is specified:
Specifies the base path for the output file. If it is set, MSBuild will use OutputPath = $(BaseOutputPath)$(Configuration).
However, BaseOutputPath is not actually defined or used anywhere in the Common props or targets files.
